How many gun laws are enough?

Opinion: Law-abiding gun owners ask how many gun laws are enough

Reading the March 29 edition, I noted the all-too-common stories of people with criminal records on the street, committing another crime. I also read the Your View by Fritz Walker of the anti-gun group CeaseFirePA.

The National Rifle Association, nor any law-abiding gun owner, supports terrorists being able to purchase weapons of any type. To suggest otherwise only serves to enlarge the already large trust deficiency that each side, for or against the Second Amendment, has for each other.

The question in the minds of law-abiding gun owners is: How many gun laws are enough? What is the ultimate end game since anti-gun zealots like to refer to the next law being the first step or the beginning of common-sense legislation? Common sense by whose definition?

I would suggest that if Mr. Walker and people of his ilk are truly interested in protecting society that they devote their resources and effort to keeping criminals off the streets.
